swords. The pain was so intense that he almost cried out.Lu Xiaoyu didn't know where to go, but Jiang Yun did!There's no return from this path, ten out of nine don't come back!As for why it was Sha Ji...Although Gingercloud couldn't fully figure out the specific use of the stone, besides improving dan efficacy, it also had the ability to conceal one's cultivation level!

When Dongfang Bo came to look for Jiang Yun the next day, he was shocked to find that there was no trace of his breath on him at all.

In other words, he couldn't see through Jiang Yun's true cultivation realm!

Had he not known yesterday that Jiang Yun had already reached the third level of Pulse Opening, he would absolutely think now that Jiang Yun was still an ordinary person.

This made him feel strangely curious, but as he had said before, this was Ginger Cloud's secret, so he didn't try to find out the reason.

No matter what, being able to hide his cultivation level is a good thing for Jiang Yun. After all, his cultivation speed is truly astonishing. If it were to spread, it would inevitably attract the attention of those with ulterior motives, and this ability of Shi Tou happens to be a great help to him.

As for the other uses of the stones, because there were no more objects imbued with Daoist meaning around Jiang Yun, he was unable to test them further. However, he did come up with a few uses for the stones.

Stone must be transformed into water before elixirs can be placed within it. But to transform stone into water, one must absorb the Dao Intent, and even a mere one or two Dao Intents are insufficient; at least three are needed!

Of course, these are all just Ginger Cloud's thoughts. To prove whether they are correct, it still needs to be tested several times.

However, with his current status, it wouldn't be easy to obtain spiritual cultivation items that might contain Dao intent. So he could only temporarily put the stone aside and continue focusing on his own cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, nine days had passed, and Jiang Yun finally ended his cultivation. Listening to the rumbling sound in his stomach, he muttered to himself, "Originally, the Fasting Pill could guarantee three days without hunger, but after being branded, the time was extended three times!"

"If one were to place the Qi-Invigorating Pill into that water, would the amount of spiritual energy it attracts also reach three times its original amount"

"Besides, according to my senior brother, there are many pills that can enhance cultivation. If they are all put into the water, their effects will be tripled. That would be a great benefit for my cultivation!"

A gleam flashed in Gingercloud's eyes. Until this moment, he finally realized that this stone was truly beneficial to his cultivation path, a genuine treasure.

First release

"I don't really know how Yue Rou, that little girl, could be so sure this stone was a treasure. But such a good thing should be given to her. It would be more suitable. Grandfather said she has good potential. When I go back, I'll return the stone to her!"

Thinking of Jiang Yue'rou, a smile unconsciously appeared on Jiang Yun's face.

It's been over two months since I left Mangshan, and this is the longest time I've ever been apart from her. I'm afraid that little girl must be clinging to grandpa now, trying to find out where I am!

"I miss home too!" Jiang Yun sighed softly, forcing back her longing. Instead of dwelling on it here, she should focus on improving her strength so she could go back sooner!

"It's just that items containing Dao intent are really hard to find, especially with my status as a雜役 disciple, it's impossible to obtain them! Only after becoming an outer sect disciple, will the sect reward us with some pills and spirit stones every month. And we can also complete tasks to earn contribution points, which can be exchanged for various items needed for cultivation."

These were, of course, also things Dongfang Bo had told Jiang Yun.

Although many people aspire to join a sect, the resources for cultivation are limited and cannot be equally distributed to everyone. Therefore, there are almost stringent requirements for the distribution of resources.

Even the Inner Disciples, although the sect will regularly distribute some items every month, they still need to complete more tasks and earn contribution points to exchange for more resources.

And like a handyman disciple like Ginger Cloud, they only receive a reward once they successfully enter the sect, which consists of three Qi-Condensing Pills and Breath-Gathering Pills, as well as a basic cultivation technique.

After that, the sect will no longer care about you, leaving you to fend for yourself. Unless you can continuously improve your cultivation level and strengthen your abilities, gradually standing out among the many disciples, then you may gain the attention and importance of the sect.

"It seems like the first thing I need to do now is become an outer disciple! Fortunately, it's almost here!"

When it came to this, Jiang Yun's face revealed a confident smile. At the same time, he looked inward, and within his body, there were already five meridians running smoothly!

In less than half a month, Jiang Yun had risen from an ordinary person to a cultivator at the fifth level of the Pulse Meridian Realm. And this was still the result of his deliberate suppression.

There's no way around it, Grandpa laid such a solid foundation for him that even if he wanted to slow down his cultivation, he couldn't.

"However, the sixth meridian is a watershed. I'll still hold off on cultivation for a while and wait until my realm is thoroughly stabilized before clearing the remaining meridians!"

Jiang Yun got up and walked out of his small courtyard, breathing in the fresh air on the mountain. His mood also lightened accordingly.

The original pact, made in the wind and free of any constraints, five years ago, felt like a giant stone perpetually pressing down on his heart.

He wasn't afraid of Feng Wuji himself, but rather the Reincarnation Sect that stood behind him.

>Especially after he entered the Wudao Sect, he became even more aware that, let alone Ginger Village, I'm afraid that even if all the villages in the 100,000 Mangshan Mountains were added together, they would still be no match for the power of a single sect.

But now, with the rapid cultivation progress and the magical abilities of the black stone, the huge stone in Jiang Yun's heart has finally been lifted.

After gazing at the mountain scenery for a while, Jiang Yun suddenly patted his head and said, "That's right, I've been in Cangfeng for almost half a month, and I haven't gone to see my second senior sister yet. It's really disrespectful."

Although Ginger Cloud came from the "wild" of Mang Mountain, his grandfather taught him since he was young that one must always be polite.

Especially in the mountains, there are clear boundaries for territories. So when entering a strange area, the first thing to do is visit the territory owner to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Although Dongfang Bo had said that Second Senior Sister could give guidance in cultivation, due to the explosion of Tie Jian, Jiang Yun simply focused all his energy on improving his realm and naturally didn't go to seek out Second Senior Sister.

Gingercloud, patting his head, hurried towards the waterfall. When he reached the edge of the waterfall, he stopped, staring blankly at the cascading water, unsure how to enter it.

At this moment, a clear female voice rang out from within the waterfall: “Is it Jiang Yun who has come”

Jiang Yun hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed deeply towards the direction of the voice, saying, "I am Jiang Yun, here to pay my respects to Second Senior Sister!"

"Get up!"

Jiang Yun only felt a flash before his eyes, and a figure appeared in front of him. He looked up and was immediately stunned.

Standing before me was a middle-aged woman. Although graceful and beautiful, she appeared to be at least forty years old.

Looking at Jiang Yun's stunned expression, the middle-aged beautiful woman smiled slightly and said, "Isn't it strange that even though I am the second senior sister, I am actually older than the eldest senior brother"

"It's a little strange!" Jiang Yun didn't deny it, and lightly nodded.

The middle-aged woman didn't explain the reason, but instead said, "When you see the third disciple, you will probably find it even stranger!"

Ginger Yun felt puzzled but dared not ask. She could only lower her head and say, "I should have come to see Second Senior Sister earlier, but I was busy cultivating recently, so I only came today. Please don't blame me!"

"It's nothing, your kindness is enough." The middle-aged beautiful woman suddenly raised her wrist, and a talisman appeared in her hand. "Take this as a gift for meeting you!"

Ginger swiftly waved his hand and said, "I appreciate your thoughtfulness, Second Senior Sister. There's no need for a greeting gift."

"Take it, just take it. It's nothing special, really. I just made it when I was bored, a talisman for creating a decoy. If you ever find yourself in mortal danger, light this talisman and it will save your life!"

Stand-in!

Although Gingercloud didn't know the value of this talisman, since it could save his life, it must be priceless. He refused to accept it, but in the end, his second senior sister forced it into his hand.

"Alright, I'm going to go cultivate. You should cultivate diligently too and not waste time!" After a pause, Second Senior Sister suddenly lowered her voice and looked at Jiang Yun with a profound gaze. "If you have any questions you don't understand in the future, just go to the scripture pavilion to read more books yourself. Don't always ask your Senior Brother for help. You understand what I mean, right"ize was probably even greater than the entire boundary fissure.”And on the other side of the mountains and sea, I also saw...Speaking of this, Jiang Yun paused and said: "I don't know how to describe...
